In both instances, I was pretty shocked at how well the eyeliner hack worked despite a few minimal issues. I literally said, "Holy sh*t," under my breath each time I tried it. If you think drugstore eyeliners lack the payoff needed for a colored eyeliner to really pop, think again, friend. Scibelli loves this budget-friendly option that lasts for hours and comes in bold, earthy shades. If your brown smokey eye is looking a little blah, change it up with this rich green instead. Great Eyeliner...This eyeliner made me want to wear eyeliners often like I used to. ...This eyeliner compares to the urban decay eyeliners when it comes to never coming off. RRP: x20B9465 I tried using the included applicator as well as separate, eyeliner brushes brush-type and angled to see if applicator improved, but it was about the same using the included applicator often ensured better pigmentation but just as easily could over-apply product. I also tried some shades as eyeshadow bases/cream eyeshadows particularly when they didn't seem to work that well as a one-stroke eyeliner, but they often proved problematic with sheerer, uneven applicator or were just hard to diffuse along the edges. They didn't take eyeshadow layered on top of that particularly well either, so I don't find they were particularly usable as bases either.
